  Hello
  I am trying to import my typepad posts to my WP.com blog but it does not work.
  I exported a .txt file from typepad on my computer, import it from WP but then it shows only 1 author (me) and no posts.

  The file format (.txt) is automaticly changed to .xls when I export from typepad
  Can anyone help with that ?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Does http://marketingdurable.wordpress.com/ only have imported posts? I’d like to empty the whole blog so you can try again.

  Hm, that’s no good. Would you please try generating a new export file and try one more time?

  If that doesn’t work, would you mind checking with Typepad to confirm that they aren’t having any trouble with their exporter and that your export file is complete?
